Rapidly Rotating Records 78 RPM Show – May 24, 2020

Welcome to Glenn Robison’s Rapidly Rotating Records, bringing you vintage music to which you can’t *not* tap your toes, from rapidly rotating 78 RPM records of the 1920s and ’30s.

On this week’s edition of the show, we’re going to go back musically to the “good old days.” It’s not Halloween, but we’ll have some songs about black cats. We’ll also try to figure out how some things could happen, hear about some Annabelles and harp on some things.

I hope you are all safe and healthy and doing as well as you can be given the current world situation and stay-at-home orders and that this hour of music gives you a bit of diversion and entertainment. Thanks for listening and best wishes!

Thank you for your very kind attention!

Enjoy the show!
